Yeah well That is better then helping Ppl with no jobs or Helping the Human rights of the ppl of pine ridge but Hey let's get paid To impeach a prez... problem is, no war was declared, and article four doesnt DEFINE what a high crime or misdemeanor is,,,,, another problem is that army nor navy was used (nor 'states militia'), which under the constitution are the two branches he is EXPLICITLY commmander in chief of it mentions nothing of the AIR FORCES which accompanied other UN forces,,,,, |

break laws if there was no chance of being caught?
I was thinking what superpower I would want and I chose invisibility because then I could go attend classes and become educated for free that would actually be kind of like theft though,,,wouldnt it? what 'crime' do you think you might do if you could get away with it? |

amazing, I wish more could and would do it
we have such a 'charitable' fund for our own government, but I doubt most who can afford to contribute to it or even know about it,,, |

it tells me that violent crime happens, no big surprise I still have less than a 2 percent chance of it happening though so I dont feel the dire need to protect myself from it, anymore than I feel a need to steer clear of males because of statistics about the percentage of inmates in jail who are male,, I dont begrudge those who wish to carry them, Im just not one,,, Do you think I am some kind of cowboy for carrying a gun? What do you think the murder rate was in the wild west? I think , for carrying a gun EVERYWHERE,, I would consider someone a cowboy,,,yes that doesnt mean I feel badly about cowboys though, its just a characterization I dont feel badly about wrestlers, but I wouldnt want to be one of those either, just like I dont want to be a cowgirl.... murder in the wild west would be a hard number to pin down depending upon whether you rely on the accounts of indians or westerners,,,,,and probably nothing close to accurate one way or the other in terms of documented fact,,, |

I have heard people called illegal drivers
do we have 'undocumented doctors',, or doctors practicing illegally, or illegal doctors and does it MATTER breaking a law = illegal |

interesting,,,
numbers are amazing things,,, |

BBC, you seem to think community policing means citizen policing. It doesn't. It is done by the police, who therefore do have the means to protect themselves. "It may be hard to believe, but the majority of people have no more desire to kill people than you do. It may also surprise you that most criminals are lazy cowards who don't want to die, they just want life to be easier." I fully believe both of these statements. One reason why I think more guns makes the situation worse is that thieves steal guns from law-abiding citizens. This happened to my husband and me. It was only an old 22 pistol which he had for sentimental reasons (as far as I could tell), but it was perfectly capable of killing someone. I still think the culture of the community has a lot to do with crime rate. Why is Maine so low? It's a poor, poor state and there is a rabid gun fan base. I actually can't think of anybody I know there who doesn't have a gun except possibly one person. So why? Is it because the population is so spread out? Because of the Yankee attitude of "mind your own business and I'll mind mine"? Because there's nothing to steal? Because the weather is too bad? Because it's such a beautiful place that people don't feel like doing bad things? Until we can at least have a clue about this kind of thing, I don't think we'll get anywhere. I think the better question is why is Maine an exception. That I have no clue. Good find however, as exceptions tend to tell you more than the rules. Brava, I am not saying we should police our communities (I have no personal desire to do this), someone else mentioned that. What I believe is that the only person who is with you 100% of the time who is in a position to be responsible for your safety, is you. When the supreme court of the land makes it clear that police do not have a responsibility to protect citizens, AND they strip you of your second amendment rights by making it illegal to carry a gun, such as in DC, then you are made a perfect target by criminals. like Im in the wild wild west This is just hyperbole.

If I was falsely accused, I rather be killed than sit in prison the rest of my natural life so if the system actually worked and it was done swiftly I would be for it. I couldnt give up on my kids, Id want to live to keep trying to prove my innocence... |

Im rarely ticked off either. Nothing in life that is important enough to spring me,,,,
some things do IRK me though (irritate, as opposed to piss me off) being told how I feel or should fee is one,,, being told how to raise my kids is another.... people who always expect and rarely give is another.... |

I think we should expand our Capitol Offences to include child rape and molestation and violent rape crimes. if noone dies, noone should die in my opinion |

Cowboy..we see you HARMING people on here every day with your FALSE GOSPEL... We decided because you are unteachable, to just let you be....and let God. That's all. We are not supposed to continue bothering with an unteachable person. But we do continue to pray for you... and for the Precious People on here to be protected from false teachers . Since there is but One God. And he choose to put in Cowboy's cup a draught with a diferent boquet. Let be. Cowboy is right for Cowboy. You are right also. for you. Though the Gates of Heaven are small for a single human. the One Gate is large enough for God... We all are but a spec of dust in his eye. Yet He is in each one of us. nice |

Perhaps it is because I am older and it is more noticeable to me but in your posts you refer to your ladies as "girls" and you refer to them as "my" and you say grandpa taught you they were the most import "things". You are young and I am sure the women you date are young also so this could explain that. But when you date a "woman", who has self respect, knows how to accept something that is given because the person cares and is not just doing it to impress them then I think you will find being the nice guy will have it's rewards. Sometimes people are so use to being mistreated they are a little fearful of a kindness being given. i was refering as "girls" because my fingers are tired and im to lazy right now to type it out as woman. and i refer to the "my" as in the relationships that i have had and i have had only 2 serious relationships in my life the first lasted 4 years but we where young and dumb and didnt know what we wanted and didnt know who we where so it ended the second lasted 2 years and then just ended with no exsplination on why and for the grandpa thing yea a woman should be the most important thing in a mans life exspecily if you are planning on getting married to that woman and haveing a family with her. she should be the #1 priority to him. two relationships is not quite so many that you should think they represent all women,,,,,, but Id say 4 years and 2 years isnt that shabby when many people cant hold on to someone past six months dont beat yourself up so much, keep living and learning and , I think the most important factor is to start communicating both what you bring to the table and what you want your partner to be bringing to the table |

when you harm others with what you believe Just to clarify though. "If I believe A, with all my heart." How does me believing in A (B)cause harm to another person (B)? A - Is a spiritual thing; holds no 'physical' properties. B - Is an action caused from something physical. a BELIEF can't do HARM. Actions do. That's falsely blaming something for "harm". Exactly, a "belief" harms no one. The person is accountable for their "actions", but you can not directly blame a belief for a person's actions. For it was still their choice to do that action or not. Belief and action(s) are two totally different things. Beg to differ. Belief can harm. There is a false belief in some religions that Women are inferior to men. This causes harm to a Woman from the moment she is born. Because a firm belief will color all action and just the fact that the belief is present will create harm as she absorbes her 'place'... The harm follows her then for the rest of her life. Leaving a hole where truth ought to be. belief cant harm actions harm actions can stem from beliefs the trunk of an orange tree has no juice an orange can produce juice oranges stem from orange trees so, in theory, a belief can GROW a harmful action or word but the belief alone cant hurt until it does grow into an action of word |

No, just saying if you act like a doormat, expect to be treated as such. If every one you meet seems to be having the same problem, it may be an issue with you that you need to resolve. Just out of curiosity, do you know how to read people? You may be doing all these nice things, but is that the way they are being received as? I know when my mom would try to date, when I was a kid, she would get turned off real quick if the guy seemed too nice at first, not that she wanted to be with an a**hole or anything. I don't know quite how to explain it, but being too nice at first can be a red flag. IDK i know what you mean there and i mean yea im nice at first but not as nice as i am as the relationship progresses. for instance yea if we go out on a date yea i open the door. always have i do it for my mom if i can beat her there lol. i pay for the meal or movie or what not that we are doing that to is to be exspected but buying them things just cuz in the begining no i dont im not supper nice to start and no im not a stalker and keep tabs 24/7 i let them do what they want as do i do what i want but there is a line that should not be crossed by either person while in a relationship. for instance going to parties while in a relationship while the other is not with you to me that is a downfall and i personly dont like when that is done to many things can happen. i am more of a home body when i am dateing someone unless the one i am dateing is with me then that is when i go do stuff. dont get me wrong i have a life also and friends of my own but when im in a relationship i give it 110% i dont date just random girls i get to know them and become friends first and progress from there so its not like they dont know me b4 we start dateing. where am i going wrong girls please inform me so i can fix what ever it is i am doing wrong.. lol if you took time to get to know the girls and built up to sharing what you JUST POSTED with them, about your expectations,,before getting into a 'relationshp',, you might ween them out faster and skip the heartache many people have different ideas of what constitutes a 'relationship' as opposed to just someone to hang out with or someone to get to know if you make that clear BEFORE the relationship starts, it may work out better |

Why is it that when a man treats a girl right (opening there car doors, pay for everything, loves with all there is to love) they walk all over them but when the guy abuses the woman they stay true to them? i have been told that i was to good to be true and had my heart broke to many times because i am to nice. can you please tell me what i do wrong and why yall do that? I find a lot of these "NICE" guys not all but some also feel they need to advise in every area of my life. Remind of what to do constantly, etc. etc. They think part of being a "nice man" is keeping tabs on everything 24/7. I am not saying that is the case with all but some. Also, a lot of "nice" guys are not good communicators about what they want or need. As for girls who stay with abusers, that's a multi-tiered complicated thing that steams from certain girls' self esteem issues and stuff. That is not a girl you would want anyway, she is going to have many issues. good points, I think balance is key here not to be too clingy/insecure/needy,,, but also not to be too selfish/cocky/inconsiderate sometimes the balance takes time and experience to find |

what do you mean its me not them. i have always treated my girls with the up most respect i open car doors pay for the bills take them out and buy them things do everything that i know possible to keep them happy and everytime i have been walked on and hurt so tell me how is it me? how old are you , if I may ask? and how old are they generally? do you ask them how it could be better? what do they tell you? im 25 and the last one that broke my heart was 22.. when i ask if everything is ok they say "yea baby its fine" then its like boom gone just like that no reason or nothing just gone.. if its a pattern ,, maybe spend some time building up your confidence I only say that because of the immediate assumption you are making that you have done something wrong women like confidence,, and communication if you have someone that just constantly says 'its fine', they probably arent much of a communicator and its probably best to move on unless you can communicate for the both of you but that wouldnt be fair to you ,,,good luck |
